President Zelenskiy submitted to the Rada Tuesday a bill to liquidate the Kyiv District Administrative Court, headed by controversial judge Pavlo Vovk

, reports the Kyiv Post. Among foreign and national investors, the court was widely seen as a bazaar where decisions went to the highest bidder. Last July, Vovk and other judges of the court were charged with organized crime, abuse of power, bribery and unlawful interference with government officials. Last week, detectives arrested Vovk’s brother Yury Zontov, an employee of the Foreign Intelligence Service. In a raid on Zontov’s apartment, detectives confiscated $5 million in bricks of cash: $3.7 million, €840,000, £20,000, and 100 Israeli shekels.
